A member asked:
Why would i need a loop recorder after a normal echocardiogram and a 5 day holter that shows bradycardia & tachycardia? 40s & 150s. im not on any medications. said during tachycardia, my heart activity showed something but dr isnt sure of what?

Loop recorder also known as implantable cardiac monitor is a prolonged monitor placed underneath your skin. It would be able to monitor you for up to four (4) years for Brady- tachy- arrhythmias, namely pauses, extra beats, supraventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, and ventricular arrhythmias.
